Fibron 4 Part Umbilical that includes 1/4 in. Pneumo Hose, 3/8 inch Breathing Air Hose, Communications Cable and Video/Light Cable.
The unique materials and cabled ‘ropelike’ construction combine to produce the most flexible, neutrally buoyant umbilicals available today. With no need to tape, much reduced repairs and longer life.
Unlike rubber or PVC compounds used in some commercial diving hoses, Fibron uses a particularly clean unfilled polymer containing no plasticizers or potentially harmful additives. This ensures breathing air gas quality is maintained under all conditions from -40°C to 60°C. Fibron diving umbilical hoses will not deteriorate significantly with age and remain flexible and abrasion resistant, thereby easily outlasting rubber and PVC type hoses.
Diving umbilicals in long, continuous lengths can be delivered. Standard lengths are 305m (1,000 ft.). Longer lengths are available upon request. The rugged abrasion resistant construction of Fibron diving umbilicals is ideal for surface supplied diving and can be incorporated with various electrical cables for compact, flexible diving umbilicals that are neutral or float in seawater.
Spiraling of diving umbilicals produces a unified flexible structure that allows components to realign when flexed, minimizing stresses induced by bending. No individual component is always on the inside or outside of the bend. This ensures the diving umbilicals are neither compressed nor stretched.
